The Vibe 98.8 is a radio station in Grand Theft Auto IV that plays soul and R&B.
Description
The station is hosted by the late Vaughn Harper and is one of the most chronologically diverse radio stations in GTA IV (and indeed the whole GTA series) as its playlist contains songs from the 1970s to the late 2000s. The station does not appear in Episodes from Liberty City and is instead replaced by Vice City FM.
It is likely that the station is based on WBLS, an actual urban adult contemporary radio station in New York City which Vaughn Harper has hosted shows on.
This is one of the preferred stations for Roman Bellic, Kate McReary, and Dwayne Forge. Niko Bellic also appears to like this station, as he says it has "great music" when asking a taxi driver to change to the station.

- Cassie's "Me & U" was also cut from Non-Stop-Pop FM in the original version of Grand Theft Auto V, but was added in the enhanced version.
- Pedestrians can sometimes be seen wearing a "The Vibe" shirt
- The radio station's designation is totally fictitious, as FM radio stations in the United States only have an odd number (1,3,5,7 or 9) after the decimal point.
